'Night Visiting' is Bella Hardy's first album. All eleven tracks are written, performed (fiddle and vocal) and produced by Bella.
Excerpts of all her tracks can be heard at 'www.bellahardy.com' and she is sometimes played on Mike Harding's Radio 2 show (Wednesday 1900-2000)
Bella has a clear and beautiful voice. Her music is in the style of English Folk comparable to Kate Rusby and Cara Dillon. Jim Moray, (Sweet England) is currently listening to her album and particularly likes 'Alone, Jane', according to his website. Her lyrics are imaginative and story-telling as if handed down through centuries. Her instrumentals include the fiddle, melodeon, viola, harp, accordian, whistles and concertina.
I love her album, and often listen to it, I bought it from her website and it arrived immediately. My favorates are 'Heart Hill' which is beautifuly sad and Young Edmund which is a very folky story of separated lovers.
